Even though we switched our minds into marketing, having actually invested some of my money, part of it being into the stock I proposed, I still track the market to see how our portfolio is performing.

Amazingly, I proposed this stock for a first time when it stood at 40 dollars each share. Later on, they choose it and as a class we bought it at 45.8 each share. Now, after two full days in the stock market, First Solar stands at 53.4, 16% more than what we bought and more than 30% of what I actually chose the stock at about a month ago. In the finance world, these numbers are rare, FSLR has become the hottest stock just after we invested.

Hopefully, our stocks continue performing as they did in the past two days because we are looking forward to use our money to do something worth remembering.

Time is definitely money, and it's too bad we didn't invest before the October break! :)

jajajajaj Mr. Akin we could meet if you want, but finding similar stocks and buying them just before they get hot is difficult. First solar was at its lowest in the last three years, it used to be at 200 and now its close to 50. It was definitely a great choice Paolo Brescia and I did. Now we are into a simulator, and Paolo is in the page checking his portfolio every 5min. I do see him as a financial advisor in about 10 years from now, and recommending some stocks to you wouldn't be a bad start...

Can't believe how first solar's is performing... you where right about investing in stocks that are at its lows because then any improvement in the company leads to growth in their stock! They still have a long way to go, hope it keeps on boosting our investment sky high :P
